@aaronkellerOW Calling bullshit on the DDoS attack. I literally watched Timthetatman get qued from 600 to 0 straight into the game after having the Overwatch account in his stream and he literally said he got whitelisted. They're too afraid to admit it so DDoS scapegoat it is.

@BerrensJoey You can buy and own Overwatch 2, but you can't play unless you have a contracted mobile phone service. If you don't have a mobile service, use a digital number instead, or even have pre-paid you can't play. All about selling your data.

What ******** is happening with Overwatch 2. I've waited over 3 hours and still stuck on "In queue: 2000 players ahead of you". Blame a DDOS though but show no proof 👍🏻 #Overwatch2

How tf did overwatch not prepare for a ddos attack? Like it's a well-known game developer releasing a new game, of course, there are gonna be some virgins who wanna ddos it.

@LunisNightwind I agree, mainly because if amazon's mmo chungs and has connection issues then obviously a game as "exciting" as overwatch chugs on release it makes sense

@BlizzardCS Why is there a 2000+ user queue in Overwatch 2? Please tell me that it isn't *another* DDoS.

@TheActMan_YT Apex, valorant, league, etc why is it an issue when the game went free to play were not talking a paid for game with characters you have to buy were talking a free game where you can get the characters post season for free. Why point out overwatch before the others??

@Grummz lol they made Overwatch a class issue. Spending over 100 bucks a month on an unlimited data plan phone is a horrible lifestyle. It should not be considered the default.

Okay I won’t lie I was excited for overwatch 2 but I refuse to play a game where it’ll try to force me to use a phone number to play a free to play game and they should fix their site because I’ve been wait to get my email verification for a while and nothing came through

I don't like the entire "Overwatch 2 launch was a disaster" narrative. I mean, yes, it was a disaster, but people seem to glaze over the fact that it got DDOS'ed. I bet things would have been really different had there been no ill actors at launch.

Overwatch 2 has brought out the goblin gamer in me that has laid dorment for about half a decade. All I can think about is gaming. I don't need sleep I don't need money (requires work, which is time not gaming) I dont need connection This is a problem. I'm a better man than this.

@omnicpost Honestly my main three gripes right now are the extreme rubber banding, log in queues, and tiny hit registration. Although they are significant problems, overall I’m excited to see where this leads Overwatch to be, especially because I’m finally trying more characters.

I'm fine with servers not working, but the fact Overwatch has somehow refused TO EVEN LOAD on my PC after loading fine at launch time yesterday is ******* infuriating. Like this **** was not tested at all, there's no way.

@aaronkellerOW It's been more than 24 hours, FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE. My friends who have NEVER played Overwatch a day in their lives logged onto it on PS4 no problem but a Day One player like me who's been FAITHFUL to everything wrong with your company can't log in??? Should've kept Overwatch 1.

overwatch 2 queue is absolutely ridiculous. the people who did the DDoS attack are absolute *****, and blizzard is absolutely garbage for not having safeties or backups in case something like this happened
